Batten down the hatches....

I don't know whether its all moms around the world or just me, but as soon as the first hint of Autumn is on its way and the nights start drawing in early I go into panic mode......
....Are the family warm enough?.....Are they feed enough?.....Is there enough supplies to last?.......

For me the best way of dealing with that is cooking big hearty meals and piles of blankets, my flats freezing in the cold periods.

The thing that confounds me more than anything is where this mentality came from. Its obviously a gene that stays dormant until the little pink lines appear....anyway I digress.

I was hit by one of those sudden panics today. The weather was lousy, raining and chilly, which made me restless and moody. Time for me to hit the kitchen, but what to make.

Lasagna, Stew, Roast dinner, Cheese Bake....

I finally decided on a fish pie, as its one Ive not done before and had all the ingredients available as would anyone that's suffers from seasonal OCD like me.....lol and I thought I would include a "How To" just incase.
